Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) Adjustable Stand with USB-C Charging Port | Charcoal

Game/life changer.
I’ve always been against all things Alexa (privacy, etc.), same with all things Google (oh so much with Google). I’m extremely tech savvy and have been for 40 years… so it’s not that I don’t understand technology, instead it’s that I understand it a bit too much to be comfortable with the loss of anonymity and oh so much more. That being said, it’s not like any of us aren’t or can’t be tracked in countless other ways in this day and age (sadly and uncomfortably), so I finally broke down and bought 2 of these Echo’s and I’ve got to say… WOW, game changer, life changer. I’m still learning some of the ins and outs, and I’m not paying for a subscription, but even without paying for anything, just the ability to see my orders on Amazon, track them to some degree, the music that’s included, shopping lists, pairing the 2 so that the one upstairs and downstairs both mirror each other – all of it, total game changer.Quality of the device it’s is excellent as is the sound! While paired each of the 2 only use 1 speaker and the sound quality is phenomenal even with 1 speaker! Installation was cake (though if you’ve been avoiding all things in this arena for as long as I have, you may want to play around with and don’t rush yourself to learn all of the settings in a second or even 1 days, just get your privacy setup as quick as possible lol, I started playing with reminders, routines and alarms all at time, and too quickly, and then had to reset and start anew – I had way too much going on without a full understanding (again, I read nothing lol).It’s very sturdy, but I did also buy the stands for them, which I can also say is a game changer – I wouldn’t like them without the stands, the stands help get it off the furniture, make it look more sleek and allow you to put it into any direction you like (I definitely recommend the stands – unsure why they aren’t sold with them, in my opinion they should be).It looks great, it’s compact enough to fit anywhere, but not too small where you can’t see it – adjustment ability is a little tricky until you get/learn the right touch, which I become better at each day. All in all I think these are GREAT.*** Note: If you’re an iPhone user as I am, it might take a few days to learn your Hey Siri from your Alexa LOL. That took a few days and I laughed through it all, I now feel like I’m either cheating on, or broke up with Siri lol. I definitely recommend these little game changers!

Not bad for first one.
Stopped working after a year. Bad response time and clock began to show the wrong time a lot. I did enjoy it when it worked properly.

Very rich sound!
I’m very happy with this Echo! We moved, and the movers threw our things into random boxes so I still have no idea where our original Alexa is. I ordered this for the music, and it’s even BETTER than our original! It is like I have a desktop surround sound system! I also ordered the base, so there’s another USB-C charging port. The speaker is very sensitive, so it ‘wakes’ up when you are close to it. Well worth the money.

Need if you have an echo show
Early to set up. Great quality. I got it because it can tilt and o live that I can see it from any angle. I got black to it’s a sleek look.

Perfect fit

Alles bestens.
